MONTREAL: PRINTED BY THE GAZETTE PRINTING COMPANY. III. PREFACE. The copyright of The Canadian Parliamentary Com¬ panion having been purchased from Mr. C. H. Mackintosh, M. P., the new edition is now issued under the editorship of the present proprietor. The Companion, established as long ago as 1862 by Mr. Henry J. Morgan, has attained a high character as an accurate and trustworthy record of the matters and things coming within its scope. It is now regarded as one of the indispensable adjuncts of Parliament, and no Library, public or private, can be said to be complete without it. It will be the aim of the new proprietor to en¬ deavor to sustain the high character of The Companion which long years of patient labor on the part of its founder and its subsequent proprietor had achieved for the book—and if possible to add to and improve it. The present edition, owing to the recent General Elec¬ tions for the Dominion and the Provinces, is almost entirely made up of new matter. The facts have been carefully collated from the most reliable sources, and can be entirely depended on.

  • The Athletic Career Ofroderick R. Mclennan Gregory Eric Gillesp
    Education, Sport and Myth in the Community ofGlengarry, Ontario: The Athletic Career ofRoderick R. McLennan Gregory Eric Gillespie Department ofGraduate and Undergraduate Studies in Education Submitted in partial fulfillment ofthe requirements for the degree of Master ofEducation Faculty ofEducation, Brock University St. Catharines, Ontario ©June 1998 Abstract This study examined how the athletic career ofRoderick R. McLennan contributed to the popularization and subsequent development ofCaledonian games in Ontario during the latter nineteenth century. Initially, the development ofCaledonian games during the 1800s was examined to provide a contextual framework for McLennan's career. This investigation revealed that the games emerged from rural athletic events at pioneer working bees in the first quarter ofthe nineteenth century to regional sporting events by the mid.-1800s, and finally into annual federated Caledonian games in 1870. Noteworthy prilnary source material for this chapter included the John MacGillivray Papers at the National Archives ofCanada, the Scottish American Journal (NY) and the files retained by the Glengarry Sport Hall ofFame in Maxville, Ontario. Following the investigation ofCaledonian games, McLennan's early atllietic career was studied. Analysis ofthe Roderick and Farquhar McLennan Papers at the Archives ofOntario and the n.ewspapers from the period revealed that M:cLennan rose to popularity in 1865 through a "Championship ofthe World" halnmer thro\ving match in Cornwall and two "Starring Tours". TIle next chapter examined the height ofMcLennan's career through an investigation ofthe Roderick McLennan versus Donald Dinnie rivalry ofthe early .. 11 1870s. It was determined that the rivalry between McLennan and Dinnie, the champion athlete ofHighland games in Scotland, was a popular attraction and had an impact on the Toronto and Montreal games of 1870 and the Toronto games of 1872.
